I UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:

Survivor Benefit to be effective.
4) If my spouse dies before my pension benefits begin, this election is cancelled and no reduction will be
made in my pension benefits for the Joint and Survivor Benefit. If my spouse dies after my pension benefits
begin, I will continue to receive the reduced pension benefits until the month after I submit a certified copy of
my spouse's death certificate to the Fund Office.
5) If I am divorced before my pension benefits begin, this election is cancelled unless a Qualified Domestic

6) If I am divorced after my pension benefits begin, the Joint and Survivor Benefit remains in effect unless my
former spouse specifically waives his/her right to this benefit in a certified court order. I will continue to receive
the reduced benefit amount until I submit the certified order to the Fund Office. In the event the benefit is not
waived, my former spouse will receive the survivor benefit after my death for his/her lifetime.
